12-Year-Old Running a Donald Trump Campaign Office in Colorado

Twelve-year-old Weston Imer, a resident of Colorado's populous Jefferson County, is officially listed as co-chair of the Donald Trump campaign headquarters in the area.

And the title isn't just for show. In his role, Weston is tasked with recruiting and organizing volunteers to help with the campaign and to get the word out about voting for Trump. Essentially, he's the grassroots field organizer for a campaign that's had a lot of trouble getting its message to people across the country.

How did Weston land the gig, which he'll hold until he starts school in September? His mother, Laurel Weston, is the official field coordinator for the campaign, and she thought her son was responsible enough to handle the role.

"Parents have the responsibility to educate their kids," she said about getting her son involved in the political process and having him take on the position.

What's Weston's advice to other young people looking at the election and at politics as a whole? "Get involved," Weston said to KDVR. "Kids need to be educated."

And in case you're wondering, Weston is already planning a presidential campaign of his own down the line, and he already has an idea for who his running mate could be: "[In] 2040, watch for me and Barron Trump."
